Editorial Reviews
Review
—Steven Rinella, author and host of
The MeatEater Podcast and TV show“Back when Will Primos was pioneering technology in the hunting industry by producing the earliest hunting videos, I was his cameraman. Watching him study every detail of the woods was fascinating. Not just the wild turkeys but everything. Plants, trees, ammunition, calls, guns—he was relentless. His knowledge came from boots on the ground [experience] and an absolute fascination and love for all things hunting and outdoors. He took everything to another level and was determined to master it all. When he put his bulls’-eye on shotguns, I knew he would soon master not only the shooting sports but the history as well. Once you start this book, you’ll understand that about Will Primos. No one better to soak up knowledge from than a man that leaves no stone (or target) unturned.”

“If you want to get the most out of this book, you have to admit that you’re not as good of a shot as you think you are. With that touch of humility, you can begin soaking up the wisdom within these pages. This book will help you conquer bad habits and replace them with proven strategies that’ll put more birds on your table.”
—Steven Rinella, author and host of
The MeatEater Podcast and TV show“Hunting is more fun when you hit what you shoot at. Too many hunters never pick up a gun in the offseason. This guide, written by one of the country’s most accomplished clay shooters along with one of its best-known hunters, shows you what skills you need to practice for different types of field shotgunning and how to practice them at the range. Read this book, and follow its instructions, and you will be a safer, more ethical, more successful hunter this fall.”
